Cooks With Books Blog

If you've been in our Main shop in the last little while, you may have noticed that we've recently undergone a kitchen make-over. We replaced our dishwasher, convection ovens and cooktop with new Viking appliances.

The highlight of our little face-lift is our 6 "burner" induction cooktop. Induction cooking, which uses technology involving heat generation from an electric current, is a more energy efficient option than electricity or gas. It heats quickly (a 1 L pot of water comes to a boil in less than 3 minutes!) and offers accurate temperature control.

We carry a nice selection of Demeyere cookware from Belgium that is designed for cooking on induction cooktops. The cookware is constructed with technology that offers maximum induction properties.

Check out our new appliances when you come for a class or pop by for a demo.
